<ul><li>A team of Chinese scientists has created flexible solar cells that can bend thousands of times without losing much of their power.</li><li>These solar cells, made from a tandem cell structure with perovskite and CIGS materials, are lightweight, powerful, and have a record-breaking efficiency of 24.6%.</li><li>The researchers developed a new method involving two types of liquids to improve the adhesion and smoothness of the perovskite layer on the rough surface of CIGS.</li><li>Even after being bent 3,000 times, the flexible solar cells retained over 90% of their original power, making them ideal for wearable devices, portable solar panels, and solar-powered drones.</li></ul>
